Answer:

f(x) = -3|x| + 2x - 1

f(-5) = -3|-5| + 2*(-5) - 1

= -3*5 + 2*(-5) - 1

= -15 - 10 - 1

= -26

Hope this helps!

I’m supposed to find the slope intercept form. The x intercept is (2,0) and the y intercept is (0,6). I keep getting 6/2. But, t

$\bf \stackrel{x-intercept}{(\stackrel{x_1}{2}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{0})}\qquad \stackrel{y-intercept}{(\stackrel{x_2}{0}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{6})} \\\\\\ slope = m\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{rise}{ y_2- y_1}}{\stackrel{run}{ x_2- x_1}}\implies \cfrac{6-0}{0-2}\implies \cfrac{6}{-2}\implies -3 \\\\\\ \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-0=-3(x-2)\implies y=-3x+6$

Which function has the largest y - intercept?

lesantik [10]

F(x) is a quadratic. The y intercept, therefore, is equal to the c value.
The y intercept here is -4.
For g(x), you can tell that the y intercept is 0 because that's the value of y when the x value is 0.
For h(x), the chart specifies that when x=0, y=-2, so the y intercept is -2.
Of these three values, 0 is the largest.
Final answer: g(x)

What is the equation of the line that passes through the point (8, -4) and<br> has a slope of 1/2

Eva8 [605]

Answer:

$y = \frac{1}{2}x - 8$

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Approach,

For this problem, the format of a line that will be used is, slope-intercept form;

$y = mx + b$

Where ( $m$ ) is the slope of the line, also known as the change in the line and $(b)$ is the y-intercept, or where the graph of the line intersects the y-axis. Since, in this problem, the slope of the line is given, all one has to do is substitute in a point on the given line and solve.

2. Finding the equation,

In this problem, the slope of the line is given. Therefore, to solve this problem, all one has to do is substitute in a point on the given line and solve.

$y = mx + b$

Substitute in the slope,

$y = \frac{1}{2}x + b$
